I had to laugh at your comment.

Note that the advice document puts ICT in "useful" category along with "Media studies" and just about every other a-level ... please don't make a mountain out a molehill. Every A-level is 'regarded as valid and useful' to uni admissions services if you actually read the PDF.

ICT useful for Computing degrees.
There we are then.
However, this is the Russell Group, and it's unlikely any of my Yr13 will be going to any of these Uni s as they've all found various computing degrees across the country to get into, that they are happy with.

And I don't see what's patronising. I say none of my kids are going to any russell unis, they've found degree courses for computing using the Applied ICT A level course, and they are happy with their choice, even though its not a russell group. Still, I'm in a good mood this week so I shan't wind BrianUK up any more.
